The management of Dangote Refinery said it has partnered with MRS to sell petrol from its retail outlets nationwide at N935 per litre.
The company’s Group Chief Branding and Communication Officer, Anthony Chiejina, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday.
Impact Newspaper reported that Dangote Refinery announced recently a price reduction from N970 per litre to N899.50 per litre for marketers.
The company said the reduction was designed to ease transport costs during the festive period.
According to a statement credited to Aliko Dangote, founder and president/chief executive of the Dangote Group, it says:
“To ensure that this price reduction gets to the end consumer, we have signed a partnership with MRS to sell petrol from its retail outlets nationwide at N935 per litre. This price has already commenced in Lagos, and it will be offered nationwide from Monday.”
He called on other oil marketers such as the NNPC Retail and all other marketers to work with them to ensure that Nigerians enjoy high-quality petrol at discounted prices.
“The Dangote Refinery is for the benefit of Nigeria and Nigerians. We will therefore continue to work with various value chain players to deliver high quality petrol at cheaper prices.
“Our aim is for all Nigerians to have ready access to high quality petroleum products that are good for their vehicles, good for their health, and good for their pockets,” he said.
Dangote commended President Bola Tinubu for the positive impact of the naira for crude swap deal on the Nigerian economy, which he said, has led to reduction in prices of petroleum products in the country.
